I've had my system hooked up for 5 months now and just feel like I'm not getting the full sound I desire. Maybe I prefer 3-way floorstanders but not so sure.
I have 3 CMT340SE with the left and right on Ascend stands and 4 CBM170SE across back
I feel like its lacking when I play music (SACDs on the PS3) --- The previous speakers I have used are Yamaha NS-777 and Energy bookshelves.
The receiver I am using is a Pioneer Elite VSX-01TXH
I have the speakers slightly toed in and plenty of space behind them for the ports. I have run auto-calibrate on the receiver and then used an SPL meter to dial them in. Crossover is at 80hz and I am using an SVS cylinder sub for the real low end.
It just sounds like the speakers are "veiled" somehow....like they need to open up. Sounds to me like they are covered with a sheet.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
